Before We Begin For FSBased backups, the PostgreSQLcontainerimage available on the Docker Hub does not have archive_mode or archive_command enabled by default. To enable these features, you need to create a custom PostgreSQLimage based on the official PostgreSQLimage. Then, this custom image is used to deploy the pod.

The following guide gives instructions on performing a fresh install of EMS with Postgres in Docker and for upgrading a previously installed EMS deployment with Postgres in Docker to 7.4.5:
PostgreSQL Utilities ¶ The PostgreSQL utilities pg_dump, pg_dumpall, pg_restore and psql are included in the container to allow backups to be created and restored and other maintenance functions to be executed. Multiple versions are included in the following directories to allow use with different versions of the database server:
Your postgres needs to listen on all IP addresses in the container, which must be the default in the official image. Then you can connect to it using “postgres” as hostname, since this is how your compose service is called, which is automatically registered in the internal DNS service. If you use localhost as hostname, that works only in the following casees Your application container also ...
In continuous integration (CI) environments, PostgreSQL databases often serve as critical backends for running automated tests, integration checks, and deployment validations. However, the official PostgreSQLDockerimage comes with a default `max_connections` setting of 100, which may be insufficient for CI pipelines. Concurrent test suites, parallel job execution, or multiple services ...
Dockerimage–based deployment Managed Redis/Postgres integration Examples of platforms I believe might support this include AWS ECS/Fargate, or similar — but I am not sure how they handle per-service scaling behavior. How can I deploy this kind of Node.js + Redis multi-container application in production while enforcing per-service scaling ...
Docker has revolutionized how we develop, test, and deploy applications by encapsulating services in isolated containers. However, a common challenge arises when a container needs to communicate with a service running on the host machine (e.g., a local database, API server, or development tool). For example, you might have a Node.js app in a container that needs to connect to a PostgreSQL ...
n8n recommends using Docker for most self-hosting needs. It provides a clean, isolated environment, avoids operating system and tooling incompatibilities, and makes database and environment management simpler.
Deploy with Docker Compose This section defines the Docker Compose stack required to run Infisical. The deployment consists of three core components: Infisical itself, PostgreSQL, and Redis, along with Traefik for HTTPS termination. Each service is configured to run in its own container and communicate over a shared Docker network.
